LAS CRUCES — The first monthly meeting to provide motorists and interested residents with updated information about the reconstruction of the intersection at north Main Street, Three Crosses and Spitz avenues, and Solano Drive will be at 6 p.m. Thursday.

The meeting will be at the New Mexico Department of Transportation office, 750 N. Solano Drive. Representatives with NMDOT and AUI Inc., the contractor for the project, will be at the meeting to provide information, and answer questions, about the reconstruction. As with other large road projects done in the past, NMDOT officials have said monthly meetings are planned to update the public on the $7.4 million project.

Work at the intersection began April 10 and is estimated to take about 11 months to complete.

People attending the meeting are encouraged to ask questions, provide comments and express any concerns they might have about the project.

For information, contact Ryan Tafoya, NMDOT District One project manager, 575-525-7313, or email Tafoya at: ryan.tafoya@state.nm.us. Physically handicapped people who need accommodations to participate in the meeting should contact Ami Evans, NMDOT public information officer, 575-544-6598, at least two days before the meeting.
